Cavalia and the Jim Pattison Group Proudly Bring Odysseo Back to Vancouver Beginning January 2017 *Tickets on Sale Today* FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CAVALIA AND THE JIM PATTISON GROUP PROUDLY BRING ODYSSEO BACK TO VANCOUVER BEGINNING JANUARY 2017 *TICKETS ON SALE TODAY* VANCOUVER, BC (MondAy, November 21, 2016) #OdysseoYVR - Normand Latourelle, Founder and Artistic Director of Cavalia Inc., and Canadian business icon Jim Pattison, CEO of The Jim Pattison Group, proudly announced today that, three years after its first visit to Vancouver, Odysseo by Cavalia will return to Vancouver in January 2017. Darrell Jones, President of Save-On-Foods — a division of The Jim Pattison Group — revealed that Save-On-Foods will be the presenting sponsor of Odysseo by Cavalia. A proud show sponsor since 2014, The Keg Steakhouse and Bar President and CEO David Aisenstat also confirmed The Keg will continue on in their role as show sponsor for this return engagement. As an integral part of Canada’s cultural heritage, and the largest Canadian wholly owned cultural enterprise, Cavalia is interrupting its successful US tour to launch a multi-city Canadian tour with Odysseo starting in Vancouver, British Columbia, in January 2017, just in time for Canada 150 celebrations. Other Canadian cities to be visited in 2017 include Mississauga and Ottawa. Tickets for Odysseo in Vancouver are now on sale at www.cavalia.net or by calling 1-866-999-8111. In partnership with its presenting sponsor in Vancouver, Save-On-Foods, the $30-million acrobatic and equestrian spectacular will play under its signature White Big Top at Olympic village starting January 31, 2017. “Many Vancouverites were touched when we were here in 2013-2014. I was honoured when Jim Pattison took the time to see the show in December 2013 and shared his enthusiasm for the beauty and magic of Odysseo with us,” explained Normand Latourelle. “With the support of Jim Pattison, Save On Foods and the entire Jim Pattison Group for this return engagement, we are confident we will be even more successful in reaching out to an even greater audience.” Odysseo, the single largest and most technologically advanced touring show in the world, is a veritable revolution in live performance that makes hearts race. Vancouver and British Columbia audiences will once again be transported on an epic journey to some of nature’s greatest wonders by this breathtaking production that features 65 magnificent horses and 48 talented riders, acrobats, aerialists, dancers and musicians. The four-legged stars play and perform with freedom, in a magical relationship with their human counterparts, creating an entertainment phenomenon whose beauty is unparalleled by any show in the world today. A liberty act, in which purebred Arabian horses are directed only by the soft murmurs of their trainer, and a fabulous caravan act that comprises people and horses too numerous to count, are amongst the breathtaking scenes that will leave every spectator captivated and deeply touched. Deploying their extraordinary talents, the acrobats present a mix of force and sensitivity, interacting with the spellbound audience, while the live musicians and vocalist immerse spectators of all ages in a beautiful sensory experience. …2 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Odysseo’s mind boggling theatrical effects are as spectacular as they are numerous: a state-of-the art projection screen which is three times the size of the world’s largest projection screen, a life-size merry-go-round purpose built for the show, a three-story mountain for dazzling perspectives, décor both intricate and grandiose that seems to pull the audience onto the gigantic stage, and a real lake made of 40,000 gallons of recycled water which magically appears for a splashing finale. Since its Montreal world premiere in 2011, the Odysseo troupe has already mesmerized more than 2 million spectators in Canada, United States and Mexico. Still wowing critics and audiences alike across North America, Odysseo will conclude its second Southern California engagement in Irvine, before moving its White Big Top to Vancouver in January.

    FINANCIAL STAKES Manica Gautam moved to Vancouver to launch a venture capital fund. Now she helps run the Houssian family's investment firm B.C.’S MOST INFLUENTIALmoney WOMEN on the To mark our fifth annual tribute to female leaders making a difference, we celebrate women in finance or Kai Li, a finance professor atUBC Sauder School of Business, it’s become a familiar sight. In a typical year, about 50 percent of the school’s commerce undergraduates are female. But as third- year specialization approaches, relatively few women choose finance. Li, who teaches a course that readies students for Fthe investment banking industry, thinks there’s both a supply and a demand problem. “People who I invite as guest speakers, there are very few female role models, unfortunately,” she says. At the same time, investment banking’s long hours may not appeal to women seeking work-life balance. Despite such challenges, this province is home to a remarkable group of women working in financial roles. For our fifth annual B.C.’s Most Influential Women fea- ture, we again sought the advice of an expert panel (see p.47)—three of whose five members are women mak- ing their mark in finance—to identify names worthy of recognition. We defined finance broadly, to encompass every- one from CFOs and entrepreneurs to bank executives and money managers. As usual, our list is representa- tive, not exhaustive or definitive.
